Oregon State Economists predict the state will see a revenue boost of about 128-million dollars in the next biennium. Ways and Means Co-Chair Peter Buckley, a Democrat, says it's a glimmer of hope, because there’s a broad agreement among economists that they’ve spoken to that Oregon’s economy will recover faster than the national economy. Some Republicans argue economists might be putting too much weight in job growth, which may not be realized if the state doesn't reduce tax pressure on corporations.
